Abstract:

With greenhouse effect worsening and the extreme high temperature has been happening frequently, high temperature has become one of the main abiotic stresses that constrain agricultural productivity. In this article the research advances on the effect of high temperature on crop growth, yield and quality traits formation were reviewed. Some key points and main options for the further research were suggested and some suggestions on the future research of crop’s heat tolerance were put forward.
